Tag Archives: Hiram Walker Triple Sec

This Friday I’m feeling in need of some luck. After the cold and wet weather of last weekend, I’m crossing my fingers (and hoping for luck) for some sunshine and springtime temps! I’m also hoping for some luck as my home state basketball team takes on the number 1 seed in the Tournament this Saturday night. So with luck in mind, today’s featured cocktail will be a Lucky Double!

Lucky Double

4 parts ABSOLUT® Mandrin Vodka

1 part Hiram Walker® Triple Sec

4 Lemon Quarters

Shake and strain into a chilled rocks glass filled with crushed ice. Garnish with lemon.

With one week to go until St. Patrick’s Day, it’s time to start planning what green beverages are going to be showing up at your festivities. While you could just buy some green cups and call it a day, where is the fun in that? There are lots of delicious green drinks for you to choose from (see my previous list of green cocktails from the other week here) but one of my favorite festive cocktails is the Irish Margarita:

Happy (almost) National Margarita Day! February 22 marks the great, national celebration of Margaritas, the sweet and tangy cocktail that everyone knows and loves. While it seems a tad strange to think about Margaritas while the snow is piled up 3 feet high outside of my window, I will use this holiday as a chance to (mentally) escape the winter and imagine summer days by the beach. Whether you like trying new recipes or sticking with the classic, we have a few suggestions certain to make your National Margarita Day a great one!

It’s that time again! Time for you to pile onto your friend’s couch and load up on all of the best chips/dips/apps/finger foods/etc. you possibly can. Since all of the salty, greasy, delicious food will most likely leave you thirsty, here are some delicious and festive cocktails to help you wash down your feast with:

It’s finally Friday, which means it’s time for another cocktail! (Although I may have had a cocktail earlier in the week, but that’s besides the point) This week I’m in the mood for something to warm me up as another cold weekend awaits. This simple, but satisfying cocktail is the perfect drink to sip on by the fire as you fight the chill outside!

Happy Repeal Day everyone! 80 short years ago today- December 5th, 1933- The 21st Amendment ended Prohibition in the U.S. To celebrate, I will be toasting to this important date in history with a classic cocktail from the Prohibition-era- The Sidecar:
